Worst camera angle I've ever seen. Why are we holding an event at the ******* Greenbrier?

Cause these are like bowl games. It’s about getting people to go on vacation more than it is about the game. Everyone’s looking to cash in.

Why is Rutgers ranked?

15-17 last year, played nobody good so far

Did they bring in a team of several NBA draft picks?

Unless I'm missing something seems like 50+ teams that would make as much or more sense.

I think they brought in a couple really high level high school recruits

They get family/friends and fans who happen to live in the area only tho. These things are empty

I guess I don't see college basketball like that anymore AT ALL, but maybe AP writers do.

The success rate with the top 10 HS players has to totally suck compared to with the 10 best transfers. Some years there's not a single player at the Cooper Flagg level in terms of relying on them, with the top ten transfers pretty much all of them can be banked on.

My gosh if Utah state would stop turning the ball over they would be blowing Iowa out.

If Iowa wasn’t 4 for a million from 3 they would be killing Utah st

It’s like as soon as some get up by 5 they say woah…I don’t want to win
